I understand that at a DOD press conference today, an announcement was made that Senior Judge Crawford of the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces will be the new Convening Authority for the military commissions system.

Hmmmm. She and I are graduates of the same high school (Mt. Lebanon High School in suburban Pittsburgh), an odd coincidence in light of how I wound up on the defense side of military appellate law. Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and gold-medalist-turned-pro-wrestler Kurt Angle are also alumni.
